Two Defendant Officers in street clothes approached the vehicle, presented weapons, and tapped on the windows telling the driver to pull over. The driver, against the will of Plaintiff passengers drove away. The cab was then blocked by an NYPD vehicle. The Defendant Officers then forcefully pulled all of the occupants out of the vehicle and place them in handcuffs before being searched. The search yielded one of the Plaintiffs prescription pain medication. That same Plaintiff needed a cane to walk, but said cane was taken from him and Defendant Officers refused to return it upon request. Plaintiff was then shoved to the ground and his feet were shackled by Defendant Officers. Plaintiff was then thrown into a police van, denied medical attention, and punched and kicked excessively without justification. The Plaintiff was knocked unconscious by the vicious assault of the Defendant Officers. The second Plaintiff was handcuffed so tightly circulation began to cut off and the cuffs pierced his skin. At the precinct Plaintiff received an unnecessary anal probe and was refused his cane or shoes. If the Plaintiff protested he would be struck by the Defendants.","documents":[{"url":"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4928418-Robles-et-al-v-The-City-of-New-York-et-al"},{"url":"https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.425115/gov.uscourts.nysd.425115.13.0.pdf","type":"complaint"}],"url":"https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/13143466/robles-v-the-city-of-new-york/"},{"officer_name":"Contreras, Adriano A.","disposition":"Settlement","start_date":"2012-05-08","disposition_date":"2013-03-12","court":"Supreme Court - Bronx","docket":"303568/2012","name":"Harp, Tashmeak vs City of New York, et al.","payout_amount":55000},{"officer_name":"Contreras, Adriano A.","disposition":"Settlement","start_date":"2012-04-23","disposition_date":"2013-04-11","court":"Supreme Court - Bronx","docket":"303436/2012","name":"Simpson, Michael vs City of New York, et al.","payout_amount":30000},{"name":"Giles v.
